x86/asm: Don't use RBP as a temporary register in csum_partial_copy_generic()
Andrey Konovalov reported the following warning while fuzzing the kernel with syzkaller: WARNING: kernel stack regs at ffff8800686869f8 in a.out:4933 has bad 'bp' value c3fc855a10167ec0 The unwinder dump revealed that RBP had a bad value when an interrupt occurred in csum_partial_copy_generic(). That function saves RBP on the stack and then overwrites it, using it as a scratch register. That's problematic because it breaks stack traces if an interrupt occurs in the middle of the function. Replace the usage of RBP with another callee-saved register (R15) so stack traces are no longer affected.
